Sabium (sà-bu-um also Sabum; died c. 1831 BC) was an Amorite King in the First Dynasty of Babylon, the Amorite Dynasty.[1] He ruled what was at the time a small recently created Amorite kingdom which included the town of Babylon. Sabium makes no claim of kingship of Babylon itself, suggesting that it had not yet grown into the major metropolis it would become under his descendant Hammurabi.[2] His is known to have maintained control over the city of Sippar, conquered by Sumu-la-El.[3] 14 year names of Sabium are known including "Year the city wall of Kazallu was destroyed" and "Year the army of Larsa was smitten by weapons".[4]

Ibal-pi-El I of Eshnunna is known to have concluded a treaty with Sin-Iddinam of Larsa and Sîn-kāšid of Uruk against Sabium and his ally Nerebtum.[5]

A Neo-Babylonian text contains a literary chronicle of Sabium and Apil-Sin.[6]
